In the VBoxGuestAdditions.iso file in 4.0.0 version, I was following user manual and try to execute VBoxLinuxAdditions-amd64.run on a 64 bit host. Runnung Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit as guest. However I don't see VBoxLinuxAdditions-amd64.run. I see only 32 bit version and running it gives checksum error.
Am I missing anything?
